FREECUST · WITH WEDOCLOUD · UMBRELLA EMPLOYMENT
Your expertise. Your freedom.
An employee framework.
Work on your assignments independently while enjoying employee status. FreeCust guides you towards umbrella employment (portage salarial) operated by WeDoCloud. Discover how it works and estimate the income from your activity.
Whatever your daily rate
How does umbrella employment work?
FreeCust connects you with WeDoCloud to organise your activity through umbrella employment. It involves three parties: you, your client and WeDoCloud, your umbrella company. You negotiate the assignment and its price; WeDoCloud signs the contracts, invoices the client and turns the invoiced activity into a salary.
Define your expertise, your daily rate and the terms of your work with the client.
WeDoCloud draws up the employment contract and the commercial contract.
Carry out the assignment, report your activity and receive your pay under the agreed terms.

Your questions about umbrella employment
Does a permanent contract guarantee a salary between assignments?
Periods without work are not paid. How reserves work must be specified in the contract.
Who is umbrella employment for?
Independent professionals with the necessary expertise and qualifications. The eligibility of your activity and assignment must be checked before signing.
How do I get a personalised estimate?
Share your daily rate, billing frequency and expenses during a call. The umbrella employment terms and payroll settings can then be specified.
